Peter, I have getter and setter methods in my Phone.java and in my Parent file NestedPhoneTest.java
here: is what i have TestNestedPhone.page: <component id="Phone" type="Phone"> <binding name="phone1" value="ognl:components.form.phone.phone1"/> <binding name="phone2" value="ognl:components.form.phone.phone1"/> <binding name="phone3" value="ognl:components.form.phone.phone1"/> </component> Phone.jwc: <component id="phone1" type="TextField"> <binding name="value" value="phone1"/> <binding name="validators" value="validators:required[%invalid-area-code],pattern=\d{3}[%invalid-area-code]"/> </component> <component id="phone2" type="TextField"> <binding name="value" value="phone2"/> <binding name="validators" value="validators:required[%invalid-phone-num],pattern=\d{3}[%invalid-phone-num]"/> </component> <component id="phone3" type="TextField"> <binding name="value" value="phone3"/> <binding name="validators" value="validators:required[%invalid-phone-num],pattern=\d{4}[%invalid-phone-num]"/> </component> <property name="phone1"/> <property name="phone2"/> <property name="phone3"/> Phone.html <input jwcid="phone1" name="phone1" tabindex="80" size="3" maxlength="3" displayName="Day Phone"/> - <input jwcid="phone2" name="dayphone2" type="text" id="dayphone2ID" tabindex ="90" size="3" maxlength="3" displayName="Day Phone" /> - <input jwcid="phone3" name="dayphone3" type="text" id="dayphone3ID" tabindex ="95" size="4" maxlength="4" displayName="Day Phone" /> What i'm hoping is for in the submitAction in my NestedPhoneTest.java to be able to read the values. I have public void formSubmit(IRequestCycle cycle) { String phone1 = getPhone1(); String phone2 = getPhone2(); String phone3 = getPhone1(); System.out.println(phone1 + phone2 + phone3); } the values come out nullnullnull In my log i get this warning: 10 Mar 2006 14:56:43,765 WARN ComponentTemplateLoader:428 - Template for component TestNestedPhone does not reference embedded component: Phone.
